John Podesta’s Center for American Progress offered access to Hillary Clinton in exchange for a $250,000 donation, according to Kevin Bogardus at The Hill.
A dozen of CAP’s donors in 2012 and 2013 were simultaneously lobbying clients of the Podesta Group — the lobbying firm co-founded by John Podesta and run by John’s brother Tony — according to Lachlan Markay at the Free Beacon. Last decade, the Podesta Group was Walmart’s lobbyist on Obamacare while CAP was partnering with Walmart to support the small-business-crushing employer mandate.
